OUR TEACHING PROGRAM

Our Program is based on the Early Years Learning Framework and incorporates the Preschool’s philosophy and acknowledges each child as an individual. During the day your child will participate in both indoor and outdoor activities and experiences. The program is child focused and planned to cater for each child’s needs and interests and to encourage the development of attitudes, abilities and skills, which will assist them to become successful learners and for preparation for school.
The program also aims to provide a range of activities which are enjoyable and stimulating and which will promote the following areas of development:

SOCIAL / EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT

To help the child develop independence, confidence, a feeling of self-worth and a concept of identity.
To develop new relationships with people outside the family and to adjust to separation from family.
To help the child understand his/her feelings and that other people have feelings too.
To cope with aggression and frustration.
To develop the ability to share and co-operate.

INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT

To foster cognitive ability through activities suited to the child’s individual stage of development.
To encourage creativity and spontaneity through opportunity for self-expression, language, music and art activities.
To help the child to understand more about his/her world through exploration and experimenting in their environment.
To develop problem solving skills.

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT

To foster physical growth by providing activities to assist fine and gross motor development and co-ordination.

Parents are invited and encouraged to participate, share ideas and make suggestions regarding the program, daily activities and their child’s day at the Preschool. This can be done by discussing your child and ideas with the staff and also by writing comments, feedback and ideas in the feedback booklet located at the programming table on the veranda or in your child’s portfolio.
